I am selling my 1984 Benz. I have owned this car for ten years and driven it nearly daily. It has 305K miles. $2012.
Since I have had the car, I have replaced the shocks (KYB in the front, Gabriels in the rear), the brakes, the left front rotor, the water pump, the rear brake lines, the starter, the battery (two years ago was the last replacement), the rear half axle (pass. side, driver side rear half axle was replaced before I bought it), and I have replaced the fog lights and the rear exhaust section. The climate control panel is new as well, as is the monovalve.
The following needs attention: The brake wear sensors are no longer attached, the aftermarket CD player does not work anymore, but it does have a radio (I still have the original stereo with tape deck), the antannae was broken and needs to be replaced. The driver side rear rotor should be replaced, the rear driver side window motor is disconnected but works, but only lowers through the console switch, I jumped it to raise it and left it disconnected. There is a light "Hopping" in the front drivers side wheel, like a bearing or control arm bushing is out. There is an oil leak somewhere that needs attention. It also has rust in various places as seen in the photos, and some blistering has developed above the license plate area. The heat works great and the AC did too until the AC belt broke due to either a compressor failure or a compressor bearing failure. The AC system works and has no leaks, but wil need either a new compressor or new bearing for the pulley. The driver seat is work badly on the laft side. The other seats are in good shape, the first aid kit is there, and I added one of those wooden cupholders I bought several years ago.
I drive this car daily and hate to sell it. It has been a trusty companion for me for ten years. The property taxes on it are way low in my state and it always passes inspection. Circumstances have changed and I am needing to let it go. Kansas City area.
